I guess you haven't done a boost leak test in a while.

Reminds me of when I put together my first homeade turbo kit a few years back and used home depot plumbing couplers. They looked just like yours after only 3 days of running 8lbs of boost.

Yea ik right....i just bought the car and the guy before me treated it like absolute crap.
